Help identifying missing part from fender

The rubber seal that goes in the space marked in red rotted and is missing. Please help me identify the part number.

Both doors have that rubber seal, it's just both fenders that are missing it.

Russian parts diagrams, PDF, with quick and dirty index. Best utilized if
downloaded and opened using PDF reader then can view index

some parts may be model/VIN specific so you may find the need to consult with
the dealer to get proper color or design match

A gaggle of MB's
Lower Moldingt - about $15 + $2 fastener..

If you don't have EPC and you don't relish surfing a Russian website - use parts.com - then with VIN# call local MB Parts Dept and confirm part # by phone.

Is there a part number for the rubber piece on top of the side skirt? (AMG)

I was told its discontinued but also that it is simply glued on

fabbrisd1, what fastener are you referring to? I found the parts on mbonlineparts.com and I'm also ordering clips for the side skirts as I'm taking the car to body shop to have Rust spots treated.

Some research points that if the body work is done right and the car is kept indoors, the rust does not come back. Other comments say that rust always comes back.

I found a guy who will treat them and repair the hood paint chips for $1200. I'm thinking of just doing it since I really like the car and will keep it for a year or two.

The rust will always come back unless you cut out the cancerous section. Even grinding down the cancer area clean, priming it, etc.... it will still eventually come back. Any reputable bodyshop will never guarantee it will NOT come back.
As to how long it takes to bubble back up? Will vary based on the work done and the environment it is exposed to.
